This episode is dedicated to Lt. Trent Kirk and Pvt. Charles Zachary    On Father’s Day, July 15th, 2003, tragedy struck the Memphis Fire Department and  the loss was felt by many, but none more than my three guests today.  Lieutenant  Trent Kirk, officer on Engine 10 B-shift, was working overtime at station 31 when  they were called to a Family Dollar store for a potential fire.  The events that  unfolded next would leave an entire city in mourning and Trent’s wife without a  husband and his children without a father.    It is not a secret that firefighting is dangerous.  All that choose to serve  understand that in a moment’s notice things can go from seeming to be fine to  deadly.  However, you could never do the job if you were scared to act when the  time called for it.      With that in mind, firefighters do the only things they can do.  We workout to stay  in shape, we train constantly, and we pray that at the end of each day we all make  it back home to our families.  When the unthinkable happened on that warm  evening in 2003 the Kirk family had to figure out how to pick up the pieces and  carry on, and carry on they did.  Ms. Donna started the nonprofit “Our Fallen  Hero’s Foundation”, daughter Hope is now a Paramedic and daughter Charity is  now an Ultrasonographer.  I feel like I can speak with certainty when I say, Trent  would be incredibly proud of how his entire family chose to live their lives with a  service to others.  It was a true honor to sit with this family and share the  moments that brought us all together and honor two fallen heroes.    Please continue to listen and support this podcast and be sure to check out my  social media content on my website MotivateWithCoachCamp.com  Also, if you  are interested in becoming an official sponsor of this podcast please click the link  below to learn more.     This episode was recorded at SRP Studios and Produced by Shelby Row Productions LLC SRPStudiosLLC.com   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj 🔗 WEBSITE - www.motivatewithcoachcamp.com 📺 WATCH - YouTube and Facebook 🎧 LISTEN - Apple and Spotify
